You're not ready to "support your thesis" yet. You need to learn how to write a true thesis statement. You have stated facts, but facts alone do not make a thesis.

Pay attention to all 5 tips here. What you have written is not specific, nor is it contestable.

Once you have completely rewritten yours, please repost.
